Summary/Abstract: As anybody, a businessman must have good manners not only during all his life, but also – and especially – for his job, being given its nature. That is why, if he has not learnt them as a child in his family, he will have to do it in school and during his academic studies or even later. For all these periods of time after one’ s childhood, a method highly recommended to do it is reading. Nowadays, for some people reading still means books, magazines and so on, but almost only the Internet for the younger generation. The paper wants to demonstrate that reading literature used to serve someone in acquiring good manners as much as making use of a handbook or of the Internet does for our students at present.
